Gimme DLowe. The peripherals aren't real good and we best enjoy this while we can, but the guy's 6-1 when pitching after a Tribe loss. Only two bad starts. Averaging a shade under 6.1 a start, and that includes his 2.1 inning debacle in Chicago.

Kipnis has been this team's everything offensively, but I'll give it to Lowe with how bad our top two SP have been and how good he's been at stopping/preventing losing streaks.

A God Damn dead man would understand that if a minor league bus in any city took a real sharp right turn, a Zack McCalister would likely fall out. - Lead Pipe

Gotta be D. Lowe - guy comes in to give the rotation a veteran arm, and he rises up and takes control of the roataion - Don't think there is any chance w/ Jiminez, but if Masterson can turn it around, not a bad 1 - 2 w/ Lowe and Masterson

I think D. Lowe is by far the biggest suprise. But MVP has got to go to Kip.Big fan of Pestano. Really cares about, and pushes for positive results.Perez- When he's good he's good, when he's bad he's.... you know.

I agree with Tripods. Santana is critical and he has improved defensively, but he's still a 'Me' hitter and a hitter who doesn't use the entire field often enough. My vote goes to Kipnis and it's not even close.

He's improved defensively before our eyes and is a legit 2 or 3 hitter who will advance to 3-5 hitter this season. And he's learning and incorporating what he learns every day WHILE leading the team in most offensive categories.
